Headteacher's Welcome

Well done to the Year 1 children for an AMAZING nativity performance this week. Their singing was amazing and they looked fantastic in their costumes. Huge thanks to our fabulous Year 1 team for all their efforts to make this a truly memorable performance for the children and their families. 

The Christmas post delivery service is open!

Last post will be on Wednesday 17th December.

Please make sure children write their friends' name and class on the envelope otherwise Santa's elves will not know where to deliver the cards! 

Preschool Update
January starters 
The Preschool team have been enjoying getting to know some of our new children on home visits this week. We are looking forward to meeting them in school next week for their stay and play sessions. Please come to the top gate (on the way to the office) at your designated time and staff will let you in.  
Extra Curricular Clubs for January 

Booking for Spring Term 1 clubs is open. Please make sure you have read the detailed information about the clubs and talked to your child about which clubs they might like to do as we are not able to give refunds. 

There are a few places left in all clubs.

Notes from the Teachers 

Christmas Parties in all classes will take place on Thursday 18th December. Please see the attached letter with instructions of what to bring.

Contact with Teachers 

If you need to contact your child's class teacher you may email them using the class email which is the name of the class as follows e.g. bears@nethergreen-inf.sheffield.sch.uk, koalas@nethergreen-inf.sheffield.sch.uk etc

Please do not expect an immediate response as teachers are teaching all day and are not expected to reply to emails during evenings and weekends. For a quick chat you can wait at the end of the day. For urgent messages please contact the school office.

We hope the children are enjoying all of the festive activities that are happening in school over the next few weeks! There’s a lot to keep track of so just a couple of things from us this week!

 

Reminder: Santa’s Grotto – Monday 15th December

We are most excited about Father Christmas’ visit on Monday! The children will get chance to visit him in his festive grotto in small groups during the normal school day. He will be giving them each a small gift! If you’ve missed the ParentPay deadline, please get in touch with the Office Team as soon as possible.

 

Please join us!

If you’d like to join the PTA WhatsApp group or help us deliver any of the events, please let us know by contacting us at nethergreeninfantschoolpta@gmail.com. Our next meeting will be on Tuesday 20th January, 19:45 at The Florentine. We do really need some help to organise the upcoming events we have planned so would be most grateful if you could join and help!
